Overview
Blasphemy
Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, often referred to as the “unforgivable sin,” is a subject of intense theological discussion and concern among Christians. Rooted in passages like Matthew 12:31-32, this concept raises critical questions about sin, repentance, and divine forgiveness. This case study examines a situation where a church member struggled with the fear of having committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and how the church addressed it through pastoral care and theological clarification.

Hebrew Understanding
Central to our mission is a deep reverence for God, reflecting the awe and respect that has been a cornerstone of faith throughout biblical history. We align with the Hebrew understanding of the sacredness of God’s name, YAHWEH, which is not to be taken lightly or used irreverently. This principle, taught by God to Moses, underscores the profound holiness of the Lord and serves as a reminder of the sacred responsibility we bear in how we reference and relate to Him.
